The only reason people even buy obviously OP ships is because there's no shortage of idiots willing to chase after them in obviously slower ships.
It's a bit of a straw man to blame ez-mode kiting on Garmurs because there's really nothing stopping anyone from getting kills the same way in a cheap attack frig with speed mods and long-range guns. |

instead of nerfing Garmur CCP should keep on buffing EWAR until people actually start using it  |

A ship that punches out 130 DPS with light missiles at 70k with a point at the same range and can hold orbit at 8k m/s is too much. Likewise a linked snaked worm can probably top 6k cold with 200 DPS drones each having the EHP of an interceptor. Having spent a huge amount of time playing this game should not entitle you to a win button. The cumulative advantage in SP, assets, and experience is enough.
eh, Worm's not really that unreasonable, I've seen solo kills by dessies and plenty of 2-3 man gangs can take them down. I think hot drone DPS is a recipe for overconfidence and the hull ranks under the Hawk in terms of tank potential so those factors naturally increase risk.
Garmur is a whole new ship though, maybe threads like this will emphasize the need to tweak it. It would be nice if it got a speed nerf to bring it in line with Caldari combat frigs. Hardly seems fair to give a ship all the best aspects of both a combat frig and also an attack frig. With the slot layout it already has, a speed buff would still keep it at better stats than the Hookbill, that should be enough to balance it with the rest of the pirate frigs. |

Garmur with links and 200m in faction mods and 500m+ in implants, broken.
All else being equal, nothing, bar cruisers and up, will solo a linked garmur.
FTFY, because why stop at links and still run the slight risk that your 100m frigate might get blapped when you can go APESHIT and GUARANTEE no risk! |
